Outsourcing is extracting wealth from another nation. How can you possibly compare that to lifting ones own citizens out of poverty?

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but I'm not entirely sure that what you were cleaning was soap. πŸ‘€

I was disappointed in the graphics, but my stats seemed right. The slide for my top podcasts had black text on a black background, but luckily all my top 5 podcasts have their name on their logo. Still looks kinda stupid though.

You're not really expected to repeatedly remove the HDMI port itself from the laptop

All the people saying buy a dongle are forgetting to mention that dongles stop working all the fucking time. It's yet another potential point of failure that stops ALL work dead in its tracks if it happens.

As usual, the real villain was capitalism all along!

Not arguing, just curious: what makes chroot insecure? I've used it for installing Gentoo, but I don't really understand what it's doing under the hood.

Yeah, I just installed Debian in Termux last night. I've got a Samsung phone with a locked down bootloader, so it's the best I can do.

The power dynamic is ever present. Can a person detained by a law enforcement officer consent to sex with that officer?

I figured out you can disable Bluetooth telephony services if you navigate deep into the printers and other devices control panel. But this might also disable the mic. I'm not able to test it right now.

They've been over-promising on this product for more than ten years now. I remember watching promotional videos no later than 2013 for this exact product under the same Humane name. It's honestly kind of impressive that they kept their over-promising in lock-step with the progression of technology.
